▲ [19a-CE-3] Wide Band Gap Metal Oxide Materials for Sensing and Renewable Energy Applications
Keywords:metal oxides, photo sensors, energy storage devices
In this presentation, the synthesis and properties of the metal oxide-based semiconductor nanostructure (e.g., ZnO, CuO, MnO, NiO, etc.) are reported for sensing and renewable energy applications. The morphologies and crystallinity of the fabricated nanostructures were investigated by scanning electron microscope/transmission electron microscope images and X-ray diffraction patterns, respectively. The optical and electrochemical properties were evaluated for these applications. These results can provide an insight into the fundamental understanding of the mechanisms in improving device performance by applications of metal-oxide semiconductor nanostructures in sensing and renewable energy devices.
